Flywheel/ Throw-out barring "chatter"....

The issue you describe with both the whine in first gear and the grindy/ mechanical noises in neutral are two things my Nismo was in the Nissan dealership for on Monday. I drove around with the tech + had the car on a lift and listened to the noise. He stated it was completely normal for these cars and put a brand new 2013 on the lift to compare. It is what it is apparently and although it stirs my OCD and makes me whiny it's normal.

So basically the brand new car made all the sounds too. Okay, now I am starting to really calm down. Damn you OCD.

Trust me, I too was not pleased with my 6K mile Z making the noises either! The tech looked at me like I was crazy for noticing the noises and/or caring! Yes the new Z made the same noises in neutral.
